Reading...Give it a Shot
BHS has enrolled in the Calgary Flames reading program. Students will be bringing home tracking sheets to monitor how much they read each day. Can you please sign the spot needed if they are reading at home?
When your child reads 30 minutes they will earn one reading card. I have sent home a green folder with the sheet to track your minutes! Once they collect all 24, they can move onto the bonus card collection of Harvey the Hound doing funny things! To earn these new cards students must read for 60 minutes. The reading competition started Monday, January 18th and ends March 26th. Teachers will be tracking totals in order to hopefully win a virtual visit from the Calgary Flames. The more they read… the more chance we have of the Calgary Flames visiting our school virtually!
Thank you for your support and work with encouraging your child to read!
Go Flames Go!
Today in room 5:
Today was a busy busy busy artsy day!
We started our morning with a desk clean and some time to listening to reading on ipads.
Students were able to read Razkids or tumblebooks on their personal ipad for about 20 minutes.
After snack we switched gears from subtraction to working with shape and space! Today we looked at cubes and their attributes. Cube Video
We then worked as a class to build cube nets! These nets take great patience so it was a perfect tie in to our pillar of the month!
After math we went outside for gym. I purchased our class some balls, ropes, footballs, and frisbees for the students to play with. They were a huge hit!
We finished up our morning by finishing our Ted Harrison inspired Inukshuk art projects. Yesterday we learned about Inukshuks or Inukshui (singular). We explored where they are found, what they are made of, their purpose and their symbolism.
We then cleaned up at the end of the day before having an appreciation circle.
Have a great day everyone!
Mr Lancee
